Please forgive me if I am doing this wrong, this is my first time
writing, and I am fairly new to the list...I have a daughter who was
diagnosed with CD at age 4 last april...She had a biopsy done in april,
and another in august..in between that time, she thrived, gained 7 to 10
pounds, grew 2 inches, and has not been the least bit sick since
april..The second biopsy came back totally normal, and I was told to
keep her on the diet, and she would be a normal healthy girl..NO
GLUTEN..So that is what I have done..But in reading some of the other
letters here, I can't help but wonder if she really has CD..I am so
happy that she has been healthy, but I know I have made mistakes in her
diet..and she has never shown another symptom since april...I try to
make sure that everything is gluten free, but I find later that I have
made a mistake..Her Dr. in town, knows barely anthing about the disease,
and the specialist is about 3 hours away, so all I have is this list and
many books...I am just hoping that maybe she could have a mild case..Is
that possible..? Maybe I am just hoping there could have been a mistake
made, and she had something else in april, and it is now gone..Has
anyone else had this experience..And please don't get me wrong here, I
thank God everyday that she is as healthy as she is...Sorry this is so
long...
